The answer is so simple it’s almost scary: what if we all find/make a good workshop code that has all of the changes we want, and then play that instead of using the queue system? Just flood the custom games list with this new mode(s) and completely forsake the matchmaker.
Giving out randomized rewards for free for time spend in the game is totally legal and encouraged practice.
The fact that Overwatch 2 has no randomized reward is straight up making the game worse.
Blizz started giving shop skins during events like this Aztec Sombra skin.
For those who bought it already there is nothing, not compensation at all
For those that don’t want it, there is not even a 1% chance to get anything better, this is what they get.
OW1’s Randomized rewards with duplication avoidance was more fair than anything OW2 has presented sofar, and was perfectly LEGAL. Saying that the reward system had to be changed was illegal is straight up fake news
im a nothing, im a main dps pharah who never have a problem to play every characters and every role, even with 5vs5 i keep playing tank even when is awfull, so i have the right to ask for 6vs6, but when ow2 came out i stopped using a lot of characters because game is that bad
overwatch 2 destroyed hero coreplay of a lot of characters
overwatch 1 last months balance was good, it was more balanced than what we have now, was not perfect, need changes, orisa rework was a good start, nerf shields, make tanks a little more dinamic, rein two charges and more mobility when charging was another good start, was easier to fix 6vs6 than make 5vs5 which fix nothing
is a problem when you deffend point 4 5 minutes then with 40 seconds left just because you lose 1 single team fight the timer resets to 4 minutes. the game would better with just one timer. of course some maps need some reworks, i forgot to mention that, nothing extreme, just make point a more accesible for attack team, specially in paris
well a lot of people hate push and flashpoint and still on the game so, sorry you cant please everybody, some evils are necessary, thats my idea for faster queues, what idea you have to improve them?
it is? at least on rank seems is not
battle passes are a cancer on the industry, or at least let you buy old freaking battle passes and none of them expire, this will even benefit blizzard, a person who may skip the new battle pass could buy an older one, blizzard gets money, players are happy, but blizzard seems to hate players so much they want to make this game the most miserable experience for everyone.
and if you noticed i say dissapear the shop so you can BUY things on the hero gallero, the shop with their misleading bundles doing again, to make player experience worst, and again, blizzard will benefit from this, if someone missed a skin on the store is not avalible ever again, if is always avalible on the hero gallery blizzard would get money
BUY LOOT BOXES IS ILLEGAL IN SOME COUNTRIES, GIVING THEM FOR FREE ISNT, IS FREE, like EA said, is a suprirse feature, is not ludopaty, would be freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, and i said loot boxes only as special rewards, i didnt said give a lot like ow1, is a better reward hacing the chance to get a skin than useless xp
seems fine by me, if blizzard dissapears, who will be sad?
and you are? im not but seems logical if things are cheap more people will buy, instead of ust one person buying 1 $20 skin maybe more than 20 woulc buy a $2 skin
it takes when you have a terrible leadership, no work force and waste your time on crap like hero mastery
you work for blizzard? you know what they can and cant do?
then game is not making money if they cant do anything, more maps, pve, what they have money for?
one new missions with story every certain time is exactly what will make hype, no only a 3 pack every 18 months, or nothing at all
the game is more than a 5 hours campaign you know? and you were saying a $20 skin is fine but a $60 campaign isnt? uh? the pve missions cost $15 for one hour of content, so to reach 5 hours you need to pay $75, it seems the call of cuty campaign have a better value for your money. and call of duty takes 1 year to make a 5 hour campaign every year, overwatch 2 took 7 years to make just 1 hour
things are already bad, what could possible go worst?
actually yes, better death ending it misery than keep going seeing how bad it is
well for developers isnt pretty simple, they cant balance the game
do that needs effort, something ow2 developers are not know for, they promised a better workshop for ow2, like pve, that was a big lie, and at least pve got a mission, there have been 0 news from the workshop since ow2 launch that im aware of
i want to believe
8 years and 100 million players are only worth an old skin as a reward, lol
With double shield ? Ball/Hog duoqueue ? Nah, all players complains about this
The problem is fighting in the same place, that’s why it’s hard to play in 2CP (not in HLC or Paris, if you use brain)
And that’s why 90% are unfun
5V5 is the best way. besides, you got max 2 minutes in QP to have a game as a DPS. As a tank and heal, 10 seconds. In rank, it’s the same (maybe 2 minutes in heal max)
On rank, you play at your elo (right on top screen)
On QP, all elo but who cares
Not on the game Teppen, but I guess you don’t know that. And you don’t have any example, other than me to find some kind of games
EA is the worst company, so I don’t trust them.
Some players who loves Overwatch, WOW, Starcraft, Diablo without complain and doesn’t care about problems. All games are not perfect, but perfect doesn’t exist
MB, I am agreed that 20 dollars for 1 skin (and some cosmetics) is expensive. I didn’t mean it. But 2 dollars is too cheap and doesn’t reward artist who made skins. 10 dollars max is ok
I guess you don’t know how a company works, do you ?
Make money to have more games and more skins. All games are on this. If you have success like BG3, you can allow sometimes free events
Take times to write a story in game. Besides, you got novel and I’m ok about this (the last one was Wrecking Ball with JQ and Winston)
About Call of duty ? the last one doesn’t make hype and the story mode is max 10H (and yet). So a game with 10 hours for 60$ is expansible, especially when you play only for 1 month. If you play zombie mode, it’s just boring because you have to survive and try secrets (who can be found in 10 hours)
Overwatch, you paid 60$ but you have unlimited times, especially when you have PVP
The best way to mame Overwatch a better game, is accept rules, play as you like, as you want. If you don’t like this, you can leave. You have so much games on the world (like Elden Ring, or BG3 etc…)
Single player story and a couple of offline modes and traditional offline vs bots.
That way we get something to keep unlike OW1 disc which are now just coasters.
Rework Ana, Zen, Widow and Sombra. Then turn down the healing of the crazy burst healers like Kiri, Ana, Bap and Moira. After that adjust the tanks and DPS heroes accordingly.
Its not hard, but people refuse to touch the problem and rather treat the symptoms. Those 4 heroes are toxic in a 5v5 environment. If they dont want to rework them, they SHOULD go back to 6v6.
you forgot to read the part where i said i play every role, im main pharah, is the character i like the most, but im not main dps, and even if im main dps so what? 5vs5 keeps sucking, from a dps pov shooting and shooting the tank that doesnt die si not fun, is like shooting shields which was a problem in 6vs6 right? only difference is that shields cant be healed
sombra, doomfist, hanzo, they got ruined, only improvement was orisa and bastion
double shield was nerfed hard on last days of overwatch 1
now all players complain about the whole tank role
then hybrid mode should dissapear too, capture point a is like 2cp
faster queues until playerbase drops like is happening right now, tank queue is instantaneous and dps can take 10 minutes, we are reaching ow1 times with one less tank, so 5vs5 fixed nothing and created more problems, even less people play. quick play 10 seconds? excuse me?
so from every game on the industry only one game have a good battle pass?
overwatch 2. and the single idea of battle passes are cancer, you are paying for something you still dont get, need to grind because you have a time limit, how the hell people cheer for that? and you are ignoring what i said about halo infinite
blizzard is reaching EA levels
more people loved overwatch 1 and still we got dissapointed
starcraft is death, diablo 4 is like overwatch 2, trash, diablo 2 can be played on custom servers, wow i have no idea i dont care
and overwatch 2 is the fartest we can get to perfection
skins are $20 and blizzard still is the company who pay less to their workers on the whole gaming industry. and everyone got fired anyone, what workers? the one who made the moira mime skin which was only her base skin with a hat? oh yeah, they deserve to charge $20 per skin. again, if more people buy they could get more money
neither blizzard leaders
yeah about that how many games blizzard have launched recently?
oh tanks blizzard, game is saved
well overwatch 2 is a failure, they are now going to sell events? well they sold crappy missions that should be free because they had less replay value than any free event
if you are incompetent sure it takes time, people can make better fanfics for free and faster than the lead writter could make some interactions, who was fired by the way
thanks blizzard, ow1 died, we waited 5 years and we only got a crappy novel nobody read and you have to pay for it and dont move the plot at all and is only focused on two characters, thats enough, 8 years for a novel, so many good characters for a novel, and what a strange concept of novel you have, 10 pages
damn i would kill for a 10 hours campaign of overwatch
still more gameplay than overwatch 2 pve
well a lot of people is living which means less money which means less content, yeah, this will save the game, everyone who hates overwatch stops playing, they are the majorit of the player base
i never had a problem with ana until this season started, anti fun character, zenyatta only need a buff to heals, widow needs the ultimate of mirrorwatch, sombra hard to tell what needs, i was fine with her before the rework
oh no, what im going to do if you dont answer my post? that dude was only saying “your idea is bad, ow2 is perfect needs no changes” im very eager to have an argument, but first there should be an argument
if is death why blizzard dont just come to say 6vs6 is death will never come back? maybe the topic will finally be over, is the only relevant topic this game have. same applies to pve, why is not officially cancelled yet, they plan to relase pve, they still havent discarted 6vs6?
but i agree, game is beyond salvation, is too late. but xp is completely useless, the game have 0 rewards and no reason to play if you dont pay the battle pass, maybe loot boxes would bring some few players
i get the battle pass because its only 10 dollars like i coudl buy a 20 dollar battle net card and be good for 2 seasons price wise but the games current state is trying to push me away from the game but alot of these changes are said to be because of some big content creator streamers
is not only the $10, is your time, i bought the first two battle passes just for one skin, i wasnt even interested on the mythic, i barelly play genji and junker queen sucked back then but i realize how awfull the format is, hurry to beat the bp and get the skins so you dont feel you waste your money, i stopped caring for skins, i will never buy a bp or any $20 skin ever, and i realize how empty overwatch 2 is, there is nothing to play for, this season i already tried the only content it have, the new map, is a push map, thats it, i have no reason to play again
i dont even care for the skins in this battlepass but there is some stuff i do want from it but you know usually anything good is placed behind the premium wall
in general shields were nerfed hard, reinhard went from 2000 to 900 or even less, thats the only specific change i remember
lol no, and tank has always been an issue in ow2 and you cant deny this, even developers know it, of course do nothing to fix it, just band aids hoping it works
lol im gold that sometimes is on silver, developers said the majority of players are gold, so i should get instant matches always, well no, dps can take 6 minutes. and as a side note i got 20 minutes queue on the new map yesterday, give up and close game
one exception that confirms the rule, battle passes are cancer
lol small, thats why player base droped and the most disliked game on steam
season passes are games now? the bar is so low for blizzard
sorry im more an esay writter than a fiction writter
better than 15 for one hour
i bet im younger than you, god how much damage the term boomer made to the internet, it makes idiot people younger than 30 think they are clever and better people than a mature person
